SOMEBODY HURT.

Here's how'dy do" The old lady by
the gulf fairly tears her hair and screams.
What can the mt tter be! Did the cap
fit? What railroad man owns stock in
the Galveston News! Or by what railroad
is it subsidized? Foril the issue of yes.
terday the paper ftirlJ knocks Reagan
down and then sits on him. The language
is not imitable and is copied.
The assumption of Senator Reagan con
corning the relations of the press and the
railroads are altogether gratuitous. When
demagogue finds himself at the point of
exposure before his good friends. the peo-
pie" he forthwith proceeds to make
charges. As everybody knows, there are
none more loud in the cry of stop thief
than the scamp who has the Doodle in his
pocket. 1t is quite an easy matter for
Senator Reagan to say that the railroads
are the everlasting enemies of the good
friends of Senator Reagan, "the people;'
that the railroads have bought up the
newspapers of the country; that the com.
mission appointed under the provisions OF
the interstate commerce law are not above
suspicion, for that matter, in the same
direction, and may be squelched at an early
date by congress; and that there is nothing
pure, in fact, upon the entire surface OF
the universe but the prime artifcer
of the most amazing enactment ever pass

Interpretation of what this masterpiece
of statutory mystery means? Is he, Rea.
gan, capable of such Interpretation? II
he is, then why not have congress abolish
the commission and turn the whole busi
ness over to Senator Reagan9 He ha:

the pope is on the side of the law and

and should be commended for the posi-
tion he has taken.

The doctors have not turned out in the
numbers expected, but an earnest and
busy meeting of the association will oc.

columns will be of general interest.

The two Newses are persisten.ly print
